If Mr Ahmadinejad's latest complot theory is true or not I do not know, but it got me thinking. As far as I know in Germany Holocaust denial is an offense. Not that I am very much in favor of trying Holocaust deniers in a court of law, but if Iran's president arrives in Germany for the Worldcup, could he be arrested and put on trial?
